Ray is correct that the ICR does not have a requirement that members sign a statement; it is the CRS that does. This does not affect the truth of the original writer's assertion that both the CRS and ICR are patently religious organizations. By the way, Ray, while you have Duane Gish in tow, see if you can get a straight answer out of him on his claims about the similarities between human and bullfrog blood proteins. A reference to the scientific literature backing up his amazing claims will suffice.
